$1.7 Million Loft In Chicago

[kdslittlebro]

HOA just under a band, AND they even throw in a parking space. Luxury

You know I’ve always wondered what’s stopping folks from creating new cities, like let’s take the state of Michigan for instance they theoretically could have a couple big cities, rivaling places California

I guess maybe we don’t want that many people living by the Great Lakes but still, and you can say the same for Wisconsin, Cleveland can be a way better city

Why haven’t they built up places like Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Maine, Utah?

People need jobs and amenities, and companies that provide those need people to stay in business. One has to come for the other to follow, and there’s not much inherently desirable to bring either one outside of the major cities, unless this climate shyt forces ppl out of those. I say that as somebody born, raised, and has only lived in flyover country

That electric bill is going to be high as f*ck.

This a 10 min walk from my crib. Everything is min $700K in the West Loop. I believe the spot I’m in was $1mil before the owners took it off the market.

Neighborhood is nice and close to everything in Downtown Chicago but once my lease ends I’m taking my money to get a house

I grew up living in a house. I like a garage, driveway and a yard

 

[Doobie Doo]

I couldn't imagine paying 1.7 million and only having 2 bedrooms. I'm sorry but I'd have my family and friends come over to my 1.7 million crib and they'd need a space to crash

better get some of these

That's a dope setup if you're young with no family and probably in tech. But 1k a month in HOA fees and only 1 parking space?

 

[ExodusNirvana]

1.7 in NYC gets you a multifamily that you can use to generate income

That's vacations, school for the kids, etc.

 

[Slow Moving]

Lol my city has beautiful new skyscrapers that cost 2 million a condo talk abt a rip off

 

[L. Deezy]

Amazing...

actually saw this before. Place kind of went viral it seems

 

[TEH]

Not worth it

It’s not well furnished.

Do you all even watch home design stuff?

Plus the HOA alone is the same as rent in the 90’s



Pass

Lost me at HOA
Maybe it's broke boi mentality but after a certain price point I'm not trying have any reoccurring cost outside of taxes and maintenance
In ten years that HOA could be $3k or something wild
Also I'd need more bedrooms than that.

Spot is dope though, I'd come home every night feeling like Ghost (or was it Tommy that had the loft)

Detroit still got blocks that can be developed.
I think people just don't wanna work together and put in the work and they're waiting on the government or businesses to do something about it.
Whole lotta small business opportunity and potential in these cities for everybody involved to build something for themselves if they put the time in.
Especially the educated and blue-collar classes of black people if they came together and did it at they budget.

Breh, even cities nobody cares about have crazy prices. A loft in downtown LEXINGTON KY costs like 4 million dollars


Saw it in one of Citynerds videos.

Lexington, KY is a big name city. I'm talkin' cities like Owensboro and Paducah and not livin' downtown but owning some property where it's affordable. Downtown lofts...? C'mon, all that livin' for the city the reason people gettin' priced out. Hit one of these smaller cities and set up shop there to make it the new Lexington, see?

You right, it would have to be a combination of things and different entities working together to make it work

I don’t know if citizens got the bread to really make moves like that, especially black folks unless they was like a big group of high earners who decided to live together in certain areas

It seems like the easiest path is if the gov subsidizes the movement and improvements
